Hi,
I would like to determine the RedHat version during a kickstart in a
pre-script.
I was thinking of checking the /etc/redhat-release file, but that file is
copied over after the pre-install onto the disk.
Is there a way of fetching it of the cd ? If yes, on which location can I
find it ?
Probably not anywhere consistent.
Other suggestions are also welcome !
Depending on the URL, that could give it to you. This suggests certain
things:
http://mirror.3fl.net.au/pub/centos/5.2/os/x86_64/
If you have the actual ISO (or a real CD), this might help:
[r...@ns ~]# cat /mnt/iso/.discinfo
